Yesssss
I'd watch a show about fixing skate spots
Id really like a how to series of building spots
@@stevenheberling2451 Got you!
Built to Shred on Fuel TV was similar to what you’re asking for
Phenomenal idea.
@@DrLoudPacks I miss that show. That and American Misfits
Thanks for sharing boys, more “how to”s should be done in the future so the kids can keep the DIY streets alive
BIG facts
Add concrete adhesive with a brush or a rag to the original surface for a better bond really helps with the thinner coats of ardex bonding too.
Bout how long would it take for this size of quarter to dry ya think?
@@patrickbyrne5070 depends on the water content. They "dry pack" the first load of material. It doesn't have much water. By the time they are top coating it it's almost dry. The ardex dries fast. Less than an hour. Ideally give it a day. But in an couple hours you could ride it. Cement-all dries super fast like minutes. It works great. But it's prone to cracking. If you started at 9am. You would be done by 10:30. And skating it by 1 ish. Depending on weather and direct sunlight. If you don't use"fill" and it's a thicc boi its gonna take your longer Just come back the next day. Cheers
Cheers dude!
AUSTIN rules!! Get out there, and do your thing. Love it.
Love anything DIY! Make this into a series. Keep the heat coming!👊🔥🤘
Im skating in Ardex branded tshirts, now i feel the connection with skate culture for sure
That "old" deck looks like a new one 🥲
Yoooo I met this guy on a plane ride to Oregon, such a down to earth homie man 💪🏽
Shout out homie Mike K in San Diego for teaching me how do this. This is a sick ass video idea.
How long would something this size take to dry? A day or two?
@@patrickbyrne5070 give it a solid 2-3 days of sun. Play it safe at 5
Amazing! Automatically one of my favorite series
Love the videos 📹 appreciate the skate perspective of working with cement and rebuilding spots
Make this a recurring series so I can keep watching this and Skateline on my lunch breaks while I dream of being in the streets 🔥
do a fixin up spots series
Passing on the knowledge
This is a very good series
Me n my pops fixed this up over 5 yrs ago!
Dope. Looking forward to this series!!
This was incredible! Would love more of these!
love diy series! keep them coming! boxes rails, skate spots,
thissss should be a seriesssss
Keep up this series Thrasher!
I love this video and the idea of having the kids build it themselves with the homies and just having a good time
Probably the best video I have ever seen.
DIY skate needs way more coverage !!! Love this.
Actually looks perfect
Please do a series on this, but you could also do wooden boxes and wood quaterpipes i reckon that would be pretty cool
Amazing format!
We need more of this thrasher. Don't stop buildin kids.
This is awesome! Well done 👏🏼
Skateboarding is a really fun hobby
BRUH IT AINT A HOBBY ITS A PROFESSIONAL SPORTY WAY OF LIFE BRO
@@lilyolk299 Yeah you’re right 😂
This reminds me of that spitfire ad like 10 years ago they made some crazy obstacle with parking curbs
A few years into my own backyard bowl-ish deal with pool coping, some homemade coping…and helping a lot on a large public/community DIY (and being fortunate to get help from park builders here and there)…I just wanted to give the MOST positive feedback to you guys.
First of all- before I say these vids are targeted to people new to DIY stuff…can’t emphasize enough that the BEST OF THE BEST will ALWAYS be learning one way or another. Example, I got some ideas on repairs and using some finishing products above and beyond our Portland-heavy concrete mix. Didn’t use Ardex but replaced the broken joints between our coping with epoxy…and then sealed every crack I could find on our “slingshot” pocket. I used an already “wet” product for both. MOST important: I’m learning new ways to DESCRIBE the process to people wanting to learn. ie float with whatever wood you can find instead of needing expensive tools. Most of us who have been doing this for a couple years have bought proper tools…but I wish when I started I would have been introduced to these concepts. Also the way he describes the order of finish is right on the money! Thanks y’all doing a good public service
Killer video I like the resourcefulness
A Thrasher DIY sub channel seems like an amazing watch, 30 minute episodes of just watching nasty DIY build and restorations.
hell yeah!!!! keep em coming! Fabi rips
oohh fuuck yes that shit looked hella smooth. practice practice practice
Really good watch! Keep it up!
this was well done
Seriously - this guy is on point. Imagine the stuff he passes on to his kids too.. this is work ethic. this is getting stuff done. life skills. skateboarding is full of trying and failures, with a few little successes, and I reckon this guy is all about that.. putting in the hard yards.
this was so good
We just lost our diy... cops are patrolling the spot heavy giving tickets for trespassing. Glad to see this vid to improve on the next spot! 🤘
That monster logo saddens me a lot ... way more than it should ...
Definitely do more videos like this!
Please continue this series
WE NEED MOAR. (making diys here in east bay as we speak)
cool video use the deck for smoothed the concrete is a big idea !
Really helpful!
Most important step is to clean and prep the surface of what your are applying the concrete to. Give it a good power wash to get the grime off. Add some bonding agent and some tapcons to the existing concrete to get it to bond together.
0:55 I've watched this multiple times and never noticed dude walking down stairs in the background 😆
Nice build!
We need more videos like these
Hardx is the way to go!!!
I always wondered why people used bondo! It never lasted
What kind of Ardex do they use?
I really like to know it too.. i need it for my diy but there are 3000 types of it!!
makes me think of built to shred. i loved that show
Yes!
Very nice yes
This host is great do more with him
I will go make one now. thank you
Wish yall wld have went into more detail about the Ardex and what kind to use! I used to use the orange label thinset to patch my ramp but wish I wld have known about the twp! I have also used some mapei stuff but never know what's best!
Reminds me of the ole Jeff King show built to shred
I miss that show
Finally someone saying stop using bondo! Quickrete can even be skateable within an hr and easily smoothed to a better finish then bondo and last way longer
Please do more of these
That ardex thing sounds rad, fishtails and sweeteners are now possible
Thank you!!! As a pro concreter I'm going to make a quarter pipe bin the yard for me and my son's ❤️
Skater & builder 👍👍👍
That was dope
I want to see more of this
Katsu on the barrier for the heads at 1:07
hell yeah
Pls make more video's of this!
Awesome how to! Thank you. What kind of Ardex do you use? There r so many... Thnx.
I really like to know it too.. i need it for my diy but there are 3000 types of it!! did u discover it?
Katsu in the cut 🤙🤙
THIS IS FYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Nice bro
so sick
Damn this was sick
Is ardex good for filling cracks in like you would with bondo?
I love you bro
Fabi really coming into that barrier mastery
Adding to the chorus of "make this a regular series!'
Were trying to get the diy game up in st pete
KATSU spotting!
Needed this. There's a disgusting quarter pipe at my local that's in desperate need of repair. I know a dude that slammed on it and broke his feet
together with the coolies to build the country
I see that ardex provides different types of products. Which exactly is your suggestion?
I really like to know it too.. i need it for my diy but there are 3000 types of it!! I'm spamming all the comments that ask it xD did u discover it?
Where do you get ardex?!
No replies yet to the question about what specific Ardex product is recommended? Also Ardex might not be available worldwide so even some basic explanation of what it is would help. Very helpful to know to stop using Bondo but would help to know more what to use instead thanks!
I really like to know it too.. i need it for my diy but there are 3000 types of it!! did u discover it?
late reply, but the bag he is holding is ARDEX TWP (tilt wall patch) hope that helps
Those are our guys
The dream team and some concret fuk'n let's go streeeeetbooo
dope
pleas elet this be a series please let this be a series
1:05 "you don't want one of your homies sitting on the side getting wasted"
No you want ALL the homies getting wasted together and working together to build a rad spot... so y'all can keep coming back to skate and get wasted together 💜
those crushed beer cans are good filler
If they made a shirt with that intros “thrasher” I would buy it
Which Ardex product is that? F5? A46?
Can someone tell me what Ardex would be in german/toolmarkets?
This is awesome! Question…I am trying to connect two parking blocks at my local shop to make one long slappy ledge. I’ve connected them with bondo, but they broke apart pretty quick. The main issue is that the ends of the block aren’t vertical, they’re angled slightly. So there ends up being this big gap that has to be filled. Any recommendations from other DIY folks out there? Thx!
same concept fill the gap with fill and use concrete
Just do better
Bond the two parking blocks together with anchoring epoxy. (comes in a caulk tube) you can find it a your local lumber yard or big box store. You can also use it to fill the void between the two blocks and it grinds and sands down super smooth.
I did this with cement mix. Duct taped the sides and filled in the gaps, then smoothed the top and angled sides. It chunked out a tiny bit but still grinded thru perfect until the landlord came n tore it out. I had four of them connected. I also added concrete adhesive to the cement mix and painted it on the sides of the ends of the blocks before pouring the cement in. Make sure before anything that you use construction adhesive and maybe even mortar/cement to set the blocks in place!
he needs his own article

Okay thrasher, I see you.
